Keychain & Purse Charm Swap SU- June 4 SO - July 15

Both and neither?

Back in my 2 full time jobs days I was the opening supervisor at one restaurant, closing supervisor at another. I had a LOT of keys. (Hmmm… just realized that could explain why my carabiner keychain wore out years ago, and my mom and bro still have theirs. My uncle made them for us–he worked at a co. making carabiners). I’d tie my apron on, hook my keys on the waist tie, and jangle away all day (if anybody needed my keys i didn’t have to reach for them). Jangling felt cool lol. When not working I hooked them to my belt loop (then my jeans were in constant danger of falling off).

Now i only have one key on my car key chain. I flip it around but no jangles. I have a keychain pouch my other keys attach to but I’m 50/50 on it, but usually any jangling is due to stuffing pouch in my back pocket and keys hanging out. Sometimes I wiggle my butt just to make noise :laughing:

Not usually a jangler, but I do indulge on occasion.

Such a great idea for a swap! It would have been tempting for me, so I’m glad the signups are finished. :laughing:

I also missed this swap. Crafting along is a great idea. Thank you. I already have ideas brewing.

We would love to see what you create!

On a side note. I saw a real Labubu for the first time yesterday, and they are much bigger than I imagined. :rofl:

I don’t do a lot of 3d so this swap has been simultaneously fun and stressful :joy:. I’ve tried a couple things and they’re not turning out how I’d like but that’s to be expected when trying new techniques. Luckily I’ve got lots of ideas :slight_smile:

I don’t care either way, but I do like to jangle if it annoys people. Embrace the chaos

Check In Question:

What is the most unusual thing you carry in your purse or wallet right now?

I found a block of flat staples that go to the printer had fallen into my purse. I really need to clean it out.

Interestingly, while I was at the Post Office I pulled out a cat toy from my purse. Yes, I need to clean it.

The Post Office informed me that the price of stamps will increase by $0.05 per stamp starting on the 13th, so grab them now while they are still cheaper. They even released the Christmas stamps early, so you can purchase them now.

$2 bill. One of my old coworkers from like 15 years ago gave it to me and it’s been in my wallet ever since.

Hmm, I don’t have anything unusual in my purse. I just cleaned it out a few days ago.

Hmm…I keep a small notebook in my purse so I can keep track of Christmas and birthday gifts I get my friends and family. I went waaaaay over budget several years ago so I’m trying to be better at keeping tona budget

I don’t carry purses that often. When I do there’s usually a book or 3, wet wipes (thanks Buffalo wild wings!), random rocks. Maybe sticks or feathers.

I don’t carry a purse and my wallet is small enough to fit in my pocket so nothing really.

But if I am carrying a project bag or a board gaming bag I could have just about anything in there

After several false starts I think I’ve finally got something I’m happy with! Just need to do a couple more minor things and then I should be done!
